Morning is a son of a b*tch...

[travlen]

I can't wake up for the life of me. I end up showing up at 11:00am to my 8-5 job.
Anyone got any brilliant ideas short of having someone else wake me up?

 

[ironcrotch]

Get an alarm clock. :thumbsup:

 

[jtusa]

Um, I'm sure when you get fired for showing up late you'll start to learn. Or just put your alarm clock on the other side of the room.

 

[mpitts]

You shouldn't have to worry about getting up in the morning if you keep showing up for work three hours late, lazy-ass.

Fog Horn alarm?

 

[brunswickite]

i wake up at 530 am everyday, its rough but i am getting used to it...

 

[Chronoshock]

go to sleep earlier, and if that isn't an option, you're fvcked

 

[Sundog]

Try going to bed before 1am

Set a bomb under your bed to blow up at a specified time.

 

[Zanix]

Less blankets, turn up the thermostat. When it's toasty in the room, at least for me, I'm far less likely to lay snuggle in bed.

Go to sleep earlier. Train yourself to wake up the same time every day, including weekends.

Alarm across the room, preferably a clock radio tuned to an annoying AM news station.

 

[iamme]

go to bed EARLIER.

you'd be surprised how well that works.

No. The beep noise on newer clocks makes AM radio sound lovely.

Tried leaving the heater on.

set a clock radio to static really loud & place it across the room.

that will get you up fast.

 

[TitanDiddly]

Have a midget sleep with you and stab you in the eye with a pencil when it's time to get up.

 

[travlen]

Responsibility would definitely work.

I suppose I could go to bed earlier but it just never seems to happen.

I even sold my computer last week with not much improvement.

what time do you go to sleep every night?

if this job is at all important to you, be responsible and get to bed early. when your body is well rested, it's 100X easier to wake up in the morning.

I did that for a number of years with a old tube clock radio at very loud volume. It worked.
